A correct decision. Schools need to be maintained in good condition. To do this, they need to upgrade, repair, replace equipment and systems. Also important are systems to ensure the safety of the school. These are locks, safes and so on. In our area, the school was modernized. Was carried out large-scale works. Many contractors were employed. In particular, the guys from the local company “MatrixLocksmith” – https://matrixlocksmith.ca/. Which is engaged in the replacement of locks and the installation of safes. After complete modernization, the school has become one of the foremost.
